Megaman Legends 3 Cancelled, and The Important Question




As the title says, Megaman Legends 3 has been cancelled. Announced video games getting cancelled happens all the time. (I should know, I'm a Rare fan!)

The issue is not that Megaman Legends 3 was cancelled, but rather the issues are how Capcom frequently hinted, while the game was in development, that Megaman Legends 3 would be cancelled, how poorly Capcom treated their Megaman fans after they officially canned the game, and the question the whole mess has left behind.

The morality system in current games makes me feel like I’m some sort of moral caricature, either curling my mustache or stroking my harp. Let’s take a look at some of the problems many, if not all, of the moral systems in video games have.

(Warning: There are some Fable III spoilers in the in this blog post, but don’t let it stop you from reading it. Fable III is a horrible game and you should neither spend your time nor money on it.)

And like last time, please do not read this blog post if you have not seen Tron Legacy, as it spoils a lot of the film and will probably confuse you.
